Woodworking - you don’t need to spend a lot of money to do it but it’s really easy to do so once you begin
木工——干這個(gè)你不一定需要花很多錢,但等你入門之后你真的很容易花很多錢。
Just one more tool.
再來一個(gè)工具。
Just a bit bigger shop.
再來個(gè)更大點(diǎn)的作坊。
Shops a little bigger now, need to utilize that space with a new cabinet saw.
作坊現(xiàn)在大了一點(diǎn),所以我需要裝個(gè)臺(tái)鋸來把這片空間利用起來。
Just one more clamp
再買一個(gè)木工夾。
Of course I need another clamp that's on sale
我當(dāng)然需要再買一個(gè)木工夾,那玩意打折了。
My wife and I were in Lowes looking at tools once and I mentioned how I could probably use another couple clamps. She asked "Don't you have enough clamps already?" and EVERY guy in the vicinity said some variation of "No" in unison.
有一天我和我老婆在Lowes買工具,我跟她說我可能還需要再買幾個(gè)木工夾。她問,“你不是已經(jīng)有挺多木工夾了嗎?”我倆旁邊的每一個(gè)男人都齊聲說了各種形式的“不”。
Lego. My kids are going to be 13 and still loves them and I get to help! It's the one thing they really still do enjoy both doing.
樂高。我家孩子快13歲了,還喜歡樂高,我總是得幫他們買!這是唯一一個(gè)他們兩人仍然都喜歡做的事情。
Lego is a kids hobby that requires adult money.
樂高是個(gè)孩子的愛好,但花的是大人的錢。

It's a kids toy, but an adult hobby.
是孩子的玩具,但是大人的愛好。
Didn't some basketball player just get asked by a reporter about "playing with legos" and he corrected saying "I build legos"
之前不是有個(gè)籃球運(yùn)動(dòng)員被記者問過“玩樂高”,然后他糾正說,“我是搭樂高”。
Snowboarding.
滑雪。
往返路費(fèi),住宿費(fèi),裝備,酒,醫(yī)療費(fèi)……一樣一樣加起來。
世上沒有什么東西比陪我的兄弟們滑一天的深雪更爽了。所以除非被迫,否則我覺得我是不會(huì)停下來的。
Adds up? Each one of those things you mentioned is already expensive on their own!
加起來?你說的這些里面,每一樣本身就已經(jīng)夠貴的了!
FIlm photography. Cameras are cheap, but film is getting expensive. I develop my own film and scan it. So, there are a lot of costs up-front I paid, but the film part of it is making it into a premium sort of hobby like it was when I was growing up. For a while, film was dirt cheap after digital cameras became all the rage.
膠片攝影。相機(jī)便宜,但膠片越來越貴。我自己曝光,自己掃描。所以我需要花費(fèi)很多的成本,但是膠片攝影本身正在回歸我長大時(shí)的那種較為高端的愛好類型。在數(shù)碼相機(jī)特別火的時(shí)候,有那么一陣子膠卷賣得特別便宜。
Having horses.
養(yǎng)馬。
I made a million dollars with a horse. Of course I started off with two million.
我用一匹馬掙了一百萬。當(dāng)然我一開始有兩百萬。

Was looking for this. So many people around me are skiers/boarders and they go on and on about the cost of passes. And then I found out it was the cost for a whole season, comparable to my lesson + training fees for a month. Good god.
我也在找這個(gè)。我身邊好多人都滑雪,他們一個(gè)勁地聊季票多少錢。然后我才知道那是一整個(gè)季節(jié)花的錢,也就和我一個(gè)月的課程和訓(xùn)練費(fèi)比一比。我的媽呀。
And buying the horse is the cheapest part of owning one. When people hear I have horses, they think I’m rich, ha. Yeah, I had money before I got horses but now they have made me poor.
而且買馬本身還是最便宜的部分。人們聽說我有養(yǎng)馬的時(shí)候,都覺得我很有錢,哈哈。對,我在養(yǎng)馬之前確實(shí)有錢,但現(xiàn)在馬已經(jīng)把我變窮了。

Knitting. I spend more on yarn to make a sweater than what I would pay in a store.
針織。我為了織一件毛衣買毛線花的錢比我在商店里買一件毛衣的錢還貴。
可別讓我提起我屯的那一堆毛線。
Collecting yarn and using it are two different hobbies
收集毛線和使用毛線是兩種不同的愛好。
True story. My wife keeps buying yarn. I'm honestly not sure she knows how to use it. She knitted a pot holder once, that was about it.
真事兒。我老婆一個(gè)勁兒買毛線。我真的不知道她知不知道怎么用這些毛線。她之前織了個(gè)茶壺墊,然后就沒了。
You are correct. I recently reviewed my stash and have enough projects there to last me 12 years at an average 7 projects per year
你說的沒錯(cuò)。我最近檢視了一遍我屯的毛線,發(fā)現(xiàn)存量足夠我每年縫7件東西,一直縫個(gè)12年。
Collecting supplies, organizing supplies, and using said supplies are three different hobbies.
收集備用品,歸納備用品和使用這些備用品,是三種不同的愛好。
I'm helping to clear out my sister in laws condo (she's in a nursing home now). We just donated eight large trash bags stuffed with brand new yarn, never opened. Estimated cost is probably over $500.00. Also about ten afghans and about 50 pot holders that were unused too. We donated everything, but damn, that was a lot of money.
我正在幫忙收拾我嫂子的公寓(她住進(jìn)療養(yǎng)院了)。我們剛捐了八個(gè)大垃圾袋的全新毛線,從未拆封。估價(jià)大概超過500美元。大概還有10個(gè)阿富汗毛毯,和差不多50個(gè)沒用過的茶壺墊。我們把這些都捐了,但是真的,這可是一大筆錢。
Oil painting.
油畫。
你當(dāng)然可以玩得相對便宜一些,但我會(huì)買那些貴得離譜的油,因?yàn)槲蚁矚g豐富的顏料和高質(zhì)量。很多人看到我為一管顏料花的錢都會(huì)變得猶豫。
還有園藝。最有意思的就是走進(jìn)園藝中心,花個(gè)幾百英鎊,然后不可避免地在接下來的一年里殺死你買的所有植物,因?yàn)槟悴皇呛苌瞄L。
Gardening is spot on. My daughter (8) wanted to grow cantaloupe and watermelon. "Cool" I thought a pack of seeds is like $2.59 and we will get some watermelons and cantaloupes. Well you need a place to plant the seeds so $600 for 2 raised beds, $400 for soil and compost to fill the beds, $40 for a custom floral print gardening tool set, $100 for trellis' so the vines can climb instead of take over our backyard, etc. All said and done we spent about $1400 and got 2 of the most expensive cantaloupes on planet earth. This year will be better, plus I can teach her about amortization and depreciation of our startup costs.
園藝真是太對了。我女兒(八歲)想要種甜瓜和西瓜。“行啊”,我以為一包種子可能也就兩塊五毛九吧,那就種點(diǎn)甜瓜西瓜唄。結(jié)果你得有片地方種東西,所以兩個(gè)抬高苗床,600美元,花土和填進(jìn)苗床的堆肥,400美元,定制的花色杜莊園藝工具組,40美元,讓藤蔓能往上爬而不是占領(lǐng)我們家后院的瓜架,100美元,等等。一切都準(zhǔn)備妥當(dāng)之后我們花了大概1400美元,種出了兩個(gè)地球上最昂貴的甜瓜。今年應(yīng)該會(huì)好一點(diǎn),而且我也能教會(huì)她我們初始成本的折舊和貶值是什么概念。
The 800€ tomatoes xD "Oh you're growing your own vegetables, you're saving money!" well, not when you count the costs for greenhouse, containers, soil amendments, 40 different types of tomato seed, tomato hooks, and a lounge chair. Because it's vitally important to laze about in the greenhouse while waiting for vegetables to happen.
800歐元的番茄哈哈哈“噢你在自己種菜啊,那你肯定省錢啦!”當(dāng)然不是,你得把大棚,容器,土壤改良劑,40種不一樣的番茄種子,果穗鉤和一把躺椅的價(jià)格也放進(jìn)去。因?yàn)樽钪匾木褪窃诘仁卟顺墒斓臅r(shí)候坐在大棚里面發(fā)呆。
If it brings you happiness that is what matters. I’m 10 years into my gardening journey and surprisingly I keep getting better. When I started I felt like I had a black thumb but now I have 3 raised garden beds and hauled almost 100lbs of produce this year. My husband is building me 3 more this year. Just strolling around my plants everyday and soaking up sunshine really comforts my spirit.
重要的就是能給你帶來幸福。我已經(jīng)在園藝這條路上走了十年,讓我驚訝的是我在變得越來越好。一開始我也覺得我是葬花手,但現(xiàn)在我已經(jīng)有三個(gè)苗床了,今年我的收獲有差不多100磅重。我老公今年還會(huì)再給我建三個(gè)苗床。每天圍著我種的菜轉(zhuǎn)悠,曬曬太陽,真的會(huì)讓我的精神變舒服。
Building cars/trucks. Out of the 8 vehicles I’ve owned, only 2 of them weren’t modified.
改造車子/卡車。我有的八輛車?yán)铮挥袃奢v沒被改過。
Warhammer 40000
戰(zhàn)錘40k
My husband loves Warhammer 40k. He has a whole room dedicated to his models, and has even won a golden demon.
我老公特別喜歡戰(zhàn)錘40k。他有間屋子是專門用來放模型的,并且他甚至贏過金惡魔。(譯注:世界最大規(guī)模的戰(zhàn)錘40k模型涂裝比賽。)
golden demon is a huge achievement, would love to see a picture of his winning entry
金惡魔是非常大的成就,很想看他獲獎(jiǎng)時(shí)刻的照片。
Books. Sure, I can go to the public library but there is something about seeing my own books on a shelf.
書。我當(dāng)然可以去公共圖書館,但看見我自己的書在書架上的感覺就是不一樣。
We bought a house a few months ago that has two built in bookshelves in the living room. In the real estate photos they were full of books. When we bought the place the previous owner said, "Oh and you can just keep all those books."
我們幾個(gè)月之前買了棟房子,客廳有兩個(gè)自帶的書架。地產(chǎn)中介的照片里,這些書架上全是書。我們買下這棟房子的時(shí)候,前業(yè)主說,“噢你把那些書都留著就行了?!?/b>
Pets, my cat eats better than I do.
寵物,我家貓吃的比我好。

Magic the gathering
萬智牌
You mean Cardboard Crack?
你說的是紙片毒品嗎?
I’m glad I got out. I’m sad I got out. I miss all my old cards.
我很高興自己退坑了。我也很難過自己退坑了。真懷念我的那些卡。
Motorcycles
摩托車
Same... with no mechanical experience and only a basic $14 tool kit I bought at Walmart, I went and got a project bike. Year and a half later, I probably have spent $1000 on tools and keeping her running. Replacing my rear tire next weekend, so I have tire spoons, rim protectors, and a balancing stand along with a new tire.
我也一樣……沒有汽修經(jīng)驗(yàn),只有一套從沃爾瑪買的14美元的工具箱,我去買了輛定制車。一年半之后,我可能花了大概1000美元在維修保養(yǎng)上面。下周末要換后輪胎,所以我又買了撬胎棒,輪轂保護(hù)圈,平衡支架和一條新輪胎。

此外我很重視我的皮膚,也想讓自己活下去的概率高一點(diǎn),所以相關(guān)的裝備我也買齊了。包括厚重的冬季服裝,因?yàn)槲揖褪悄莻€(gè)在零下一度騎車的傻逼。
但仍然比直接買一輛哈雷要便宜太多了……
Golf
高爾夫。
Came here to say this. Between that and shooting guns idk what’s more of a money pit. Don’t even get me started on fishing
點(diǎn)進(jìn)來就想說這個(gè)。除了高爾夫和實(shí)彈射擊,我真不知道還有什么算是無底洞。可別讓我提起釣魚。
I’d say shooting, at least I find my ball every once in awhile. I never retrieve bullets…
我覺得是實(shí)彈射擊,至少我偶爾還能把打出去的球撿回來。打出去的子彈我可從沒撿回來過……
Yeah I had a Volkswagen Golf too. Biggest money pit I ever owned.
沒錯(cuò)我也有一輛大眾高爾夫。這輩子砸過的最大的一筆錢。
I own an ‘85 Nissan 300zx. She’s sexy. But an absolute money pit. Takes up room in my tiny garage. I love that stupid machine.
我有一輛85年的日產(chǎn)300ZX.很性感,但也很少錢。在我的小車庫里占了很大一片地方。但我太喜歡這輛笨機(jī)器了。
I haven really started yet, but I wanna collect vinyl records so baaad....
我還沒開始,但我特別特別想要收集黑膠唱片……
Music is the big one for me. I’ve played professionally for 20 years, but only because I subsidize my music with my day job.
音樂對我來說是最大的一個(gè)。我已經(jīng)玩了20年職業(yè)音樂了,但那只是因?yàn)槲夷苡冒滋斓墓ぷ餮a(bǔ)貼我的音樂工作。
如果劃掉音樂,那就是遙控直升機(jī),船模和航模了。很貴的愛好,但沒什么能夠比得上握著遙控器度過的一下午更能讓我享受到童年的樂趣。

Definitely music. I’ve bought so much gear, instruments, plug ins, programs, upxes. Until you take a step back and realize how money you have dumped into this hobby over the years. I still love it! Went to school to be an engineer so I could fund my hobby
絕對是音樂。我買了太多的東西,樂器,插件,程序,補(bǔ)丁。你只有退后一步才能發(fā)現(xiàn)這幾年你往這個(gè)愛好里面砸了多少錢。但我仍然很喜歡!上學(xué)念的是工程師,這樣我就能給我的愛好打錢了。
Golf - I suck at it, it's expensive as shit to play, equipment is expensive. But every now and then I hit that one shot that just keeps me coming back.
高爾夫——我打得很爛,打起來也貴的一逼,裝備都很昂貴。但我總是會(huì)偶爾打出那么一桿,讓我想要回來接著打。
